I am thinking and planning, and trying to find all the scraps of paper I have made notes on recently to get them typed up into my outlines.

I usually feel pretty happy with my old stories -- I actually make a practice of going back and rereading stuff to remind myself that yes, I am capable of writing well. Of course, I often find something that needs fixing (usually grammar), so I will tweak the story if it's not a drastic change.

I wrote! If I can keep up my current pensum, I'll be able to make up for the two lost weeks pretty soon. We'll see how it goes.

I often reread old fics. First of all, I'm mostly in tiny fandoms where there's not much else to read. Second, I usually write things that are exactly to my taste. ;) Third, I find it interesting to compare how a fic feels after I got a greater distance from it to how it felt while I was working on it. Rereading a fic I haven't looked at in a while is the closest I can get to looking at it from an outsider's perspective.

I'm usually still quite happy with my old fics and they are a good reminder that no matter how bad I feel during the writing process, I'm usually able to turn it into something decent.

I do reread my old stories. Some stories make me feel happy but majority just go into the cringe worthy category. But I don't necessarily get discouraged though. It was an idea that I loved writing so I'm happy that I wrote the fic for myself regardless how cringe-worthy it may feel in another few years
